Open House on bridge repair project April 24 By Dan Jensen

The City of Camrose will be sharing information on its 48 Avenue bridge replacement and capacity improvement project during a 4 to 8 p.m. open house at Community Room #3 in the Camrose Recreation Centre April 24. “Representatives from City administration and AMEC (Environment and Infrastructure) will be available to meet with affected stakeholders, adjacent property owners, business owners and the general public,” said Director of Engineering Jeremy Enarson in a report to Camrose City council April 7. “The intent of the initial open house is to introduce the overall project, to identify some of the initial thoughts in terms of how we would accommodate the traffic during the initial construction, and to gather feedback from the various stakeholders (fire departments, EMS, the hospital and school boards). Hopefully we will be able to incorporate some of the comments that are received from this open house into the

City Hall status report By Dan Jensen

Camrose City council will be conducting its meetings in a brand new City Hall in a little less than a year. A report presented to council April 7 by Jocelyn Kew, senior project manager for construction, indicated that City Hall will be substantially completed by Jan. 28. Kew noted that City employees will be conducting utility work this spring and that the improving weather has assisted with construction activities, which to date have included the pouring of the foundation walls, columns and pad, the stairwells, the installation of the steel, the pouring of concrete on the fourth floor and the rough in for the windows. The original contract submitted by Bird management for the City Hall was $13,447,740. A total of 26 change orders have been issued to date at an additional cost of $443,189, which is approximately 20 per cent of the construction contingency.

ongoing design of the project.” A second informational session/open house will be held later in the design process to show how the stakeholder concerns and comments were included in the overall design of the project. AMEC was awarded the contract for engineering support related to the conceptual, preliminary and detailed design of the project, as well as assistance with tendering, construction and post construction management after a City request for proposal on the Alberta Purchasing Website received a total of seven submissions from Alberta-based engineering firms. “Administration reviewed the various submissions and ultimately awarded the engineering design/construction management contract to AMEC Environment and Infrastructure, which has extensive experience with all aspects of this type of work,” said Enarson. The final scope of the project will depend on a number of factors, including

detailed traffic modelling to estimate growth within the next 20 year time frame, review of documented safety hazards, including traffic collision reports, physical restraints, including possible land acquisition issues, and updated cost estimates. Items that administration has directed AMEC to look at in the design stage besides the replacement of the existing bridge structure due to physical condition, are re-grading of 48 Avenue between 53 Street and 51 Street to reduce the steep slope that exists immediately west of 51 Avenue, the construction of additional lanes of traffic between 53 Street and 51 Street, the construction of a dedicated right turn lane along 48 Avenue at 50 Street, alternate means for pedestrians to cross 48 Avenue through such measures as pedestrian underpass or overpass near Mirror Lake, a review of traffic signal operations and traffic demands near 51 Street to see if the intersection of 48 Avenue and

51 Street could be reconfigured to eliminate signals, the relocation of public and/or private utilities as required and all applicable environmental approvals. “There are a number of different items that potentially might be involved in the overall project,” said Enarson. Camrose mayor Norm Mayer said he would favour an underpass for pedestrian movements rather than an overpass, as it would be more user friendly for families. “That is one thing you have in here and I appreciate that because I think that is something we should look at. We need to try to figure out how we are going to continue the (walking) path from the south to the north.” The City hopes to have the conceptual design by mid to late May so that preliminary and detailed design can be carried out between June and August. The tendering and award of the construction contract is scheduled for late September or early Octo-

ber, followed by start of construction in late October and substantial completion of construction in May of 2015. The overall project is currently estimated to cost approximately $2.8 million. “Unfortunately, through discussions with the province, which will be administering the Small Communities Fund on behalf of the federal government, administration understands that the provincial and federal governments have yet to finalize their internal processes related to the Small Communities Fund grant,” said Enarson. “As such it is very unlikely that any monies will be formally approved under the Small Communities Fund in 2014, and particularly before the 48 Avenue project needs to be put out for tender. Given that this grant program will be a competitive program, there is no guarantee that the City would be successful for funding for this project at all.”

Council gives first reading to local improvements By Dan Jensen

City council gave first reading to six local improvement bylaws at its April 7 meeting that would see residents along Grand Park Crescent between 48 Avenue and Grand Drive and 48 B Avenue east of Grand Park Crescent pay just under a third of the cost of improvements to area curbs and sidewalks. The total budgeted cost for the work – which includes the construction of curb extension bulbouts – is $850,000. Residents would pay $280,000 of that amount, while $20,000 would come from the municipal levy and $500,000 would come from grants. The improvements may be stopped if two-thirds of the residents with at least two-thirds of the assessed value petition against it. The improvements are the first on the 2014 local improvement capital budget list. “The roadway was originally constructed in the late 1960s but is in poor condition,” said a written report presented to council by director of infrastructure services Mark Barrett. City administration met with the residents in March to discuss the local improvements to the pavement, curbs and sidewalks, as well as to address whether other projects like the construction of bulbouts and upgrades to the street lighting might be done at the same time. While residents were in favour of the bulbouts as a way of potentially slowing and decreasing traffic, they were not in agreement with spending the extra money for new street lights.

An example of the bulbouts the City is proposing for the Grand Park Crescent area.

“The residents felt there was some need for traffic calming,” said director of engineering services Jeremy Enarson. “We feel we can keep that cost down since we are doing the curbs and the sidewalks at the same time.” The current street lighting consists of wood poles and overhead wires, which could be knocked down by the area’s mature trees. New street lighting, with underground power, would increase the total base cost of the improvements by between 33 and 50 per cent. “The total cost would have increased quite substantially just to take the power underground,” said Enarson. “If you were to do that after the fact it would be even higher.” The bulbouts would be

located at the intersection of Grand Drive and Grand Park Crescent, as well as the intersection of Grand Park Crescent and 48 B Avenue. Local improvement charges for the additional construction costs would be assessed to properties directly benefitting from the structures, in accordance with the City’s local improvement policy. The City had to take into account a number of factors when deciding proper bulbout placement, including drainage. “You need to put them where they are at the crest of a hill so that the drainage is going away from them, or at a location where it is sufficiently steep, so water can actually flow around the bulb and keep on going,” said Enarson. “If you install them at an incorrect loca-

tion you can actually trap water and potentially ice in the winter.” How far the bulbs extend into the roadway depend on the width of the road. “Probably the best example we would have right now is 49 Avenue downtown in front of the courthouse,” said Enarson. “We did an improvement there probably three or four years ago in front of the courthouse, between the courthouse and CLBI. It shortens up the distance that the pedestrians have to walk from one side to the other and creates a narrower feeling roadway. When the driver feels that constriction they generally drive a little slower than when the road is wider open.” Continued on page 8

Area resident Margaret Rathnavalu expressed doubts as to whether the bulbouts would decrease the amount of traffic in the neighbourhood, which is now up to between 700 and 900 vehicles per day, and questioned whether the new pavement would make the Grand Park Crescent area attractive to drivers who insist on taking shortcuts. She asked that the City look at more options to ensure that the public uses Grand Drive and the highway, rather than Grand Park Crescent to get where they need to go. “I am not sure that anything else can be done but I appreciate council looking at it,” she said. “In the next fifty years what will the traffic be going through the area?” Councillor Agnes Hoveland said one of the things that contributes to the shortcutting is the ability of drivers leaving the Boston Pizza parking lot to turn right (into the residential area) instead of left, which would put them on the highway. She noted that there was, at one time, a sign which told drivers coming out of the parking lot that they could only turn left. Enarson said the addition of bulbouts will not eliminate shortcutting through the residential area. “There is no way that I can definitively say that no shortcutting through the area will happen. It is a public roadway just like any other public roadway in the city. Creating the bulb outs is just one form of traffic calming. When you create constriction points you give the feeling that it (the road is tight). Drivers typically slow down during that. Indirectly it will cause the drivers to question whether this is what they really want or if this is the direction they want to go. It will not eliminate through traffic but it will be just another restriction along the way. A certain percentage of drivers will decide that it is just not worth going that way.” Enarson said he had some discussions with residents about turning Grand Park Crescent into a one-way road but received varying responses to which direction the one-way should go. “I guess that could always be considered at some point down the road after the improvements are done.” Councillors Sears and Hoveland questioned the wisdom of not updating the street lights in the area, noting that it would be more fiscally prudent to do the upgrades now than later. “We should be including it in a project like this, as we are modernizing and won’t be back in there for another long time,” said Sears. “I know there are lots of trees in that area or trees falling on power lines, those sorts of things. Wouldn’t it just make more sense to do the power also at the same time (as the local improvements)? Infrastructure and planning services general manager Wayne Franklin said the lighting would be considered as a local improvement which the residents could petition against. “Since we didn’t receive a lot of support for it at the information session and because of the high cost the City is not in a position to force this improvement to happen.”

Male dead after single vehicle rollover At 6:30 a.m. on April 7 Camrose RCMP were dispatched to a single vehicle rollover on Range Road 201 just south of Highway 617. Once on scene it was determined the lone male occupant was deceased. The investigation showed that the vehicle was travelling southbound on Highway 833 and did not make any attempts to slow down at the intersection with Highway 617. After crossing over Highway 617 the vehicle lost control on the gravel surface of Range Road 201 and soon afterwards rolled into the westside ditch. Police remind motorists to be attentive on the roadways and ensure all traffic signs are obeyed. There are many stop signs and yield signs in the county of Camrose and it is easy to become complacent, which unfortunately is one of the main contributors to loss of life on our roadways.

How do I dress THAT window?

– Monica Szott Some of the most attractive homes include windows that accentuate the architecture of the home; these unique and interesting windows in your front living room may have been the elements that drew you to your home in the first place. And even though these windows add character and charm to a room, they may leave you wondering how you will cover them. Are there options available to you if you want to install window coverings? The answer is yes! They may not be as difficult or costly as you may think. Although we are all begging for the sunlight right now, our furniture, flooring and our precious artwork are begging for protection from the sun’s harmful rays. Over time, sun can damage interior furnishings to the point that they fade, dry out and even deteriorate - especially if your windows face the west or the south. Specialty shapes (as we call them) may look stunning left uncovered; however, it is likely that they let out heat during our long (really long) winters and let in too much heat during our summer. Before you grab your toque or your sunhat there are custom treatments available that can offer some light control and insulation. Should you have an arch, triangular, trapezoid, circular, oval, hexagon or octagon window that you want covered, consider the many options available to you from Hunter Douglas®, Maxxmar ®, and Shade-o-Matic ® custom blinds. Custom shutters will create a sophisticated built-in look... (as these are my favourites.) Or, for an elegant, softer look, Silhouette® or roman shades would be classic additions. Wood blinds, and pleated shades are other options. Should you long for draperies, there are plenty of creative options using fabric. Our fabricator, Annabelle, has tackled several “special” windows with beautiful results. If you want a big impact, fabric that hangs from a decorative rod mounted at the ceiling adds a sense of greater height and promotes the “wow” factor. Completing the architectural details in your home adds aesthetic value as well as practical value. To ensure a perfect fit, a template is made of your specialty window. Consider working with an interior designer who is also a window covering specialist to select the best option for your windows. Schedule your free in-home consultation now!

TKO Safety provides medical services By Murray Green

TKO Safety in Camrose is now offering on-site medical services for special events, rodeos, concerts and sporting events. They will be supplying the emergency medical services (EMS) during Jaywalkers’ Jamboree as well as continuing to train people as experienced emergency services professionals, health and safety professionals, oil and gas and pipeline consultation professionals, health and safety training facilitators and program developers. Camrose president and CEO Travis Shawcross leads the TKO Safety company – Aboriginal owned and First Nation’s based – training specialists into the local area. “I wanted to move out of the big cities and into a smaller community. Our realtor suggested Camrose and we instantly fell in love with it. It is a beautiful city,” said Shawcross. “I was working for another medical company as an employee and I wanted to have my own company.” Travis and his fiancee, Kristen Bailey, started TKO Safety as a safety training company first. “We are both medics and we were asked to provide services for a cancer event and we said sure. Then we quickly went out and purchased

supplies,” explained Travis. “It ran really well and we had some fun with it. So, we decided that we wanted to do this full time. We looked on Kjiji and bought an ambulance. From there we went from nothing to ballooning into a EMS business.” The ability to provide an ambulance on-site made a huge difference.

“We are providing services for soccer in Edmonton and the Edmonton Prospects (semi-pro) baseball team,” said Travis. “It gets our foot in the door.” The TKO Safety instructors and medics are registered EMS professionals and registered training partners with the Canadian Red Cross. “We offer on-site medical

services whether it’s a function for 10 or 10,000 people,” said Shawcross. Courses that are offered include standard first aid, safety training, oil and gar emergency medical services and CPR. “We want to give back to the community, so we are starting a Bassinets for Babies program that helps

new mothers that need assistance. We not only provide the mother with a bassinet, but we load it with diapers, cloths and other things new mothers will need for the baby for about three months,” Travis said. For more information contact Travis at travis@tkosafety.com or call 780-2705510.

Interact Club’s Ten Teens and a Tarp fundraiser April 26, 27 By Dan Jensen

What is it like to live outdoors with nothing but a tarp for shelter? That’s a question for which the Interact Club of Camrose is hoping to have an answer after it holds a Ten Teens and a Tarp fundraiser at the corner of Battle River Hockey Plus and 48 Avenue April 26 and 27. “It is essentially going to be 10 teenagers who will be drawing attention to homelessness in Camrose,” said Interact club president Emily Gilroy. “We were originally going to do 10 teens in a tent, but since we were doing stuff for the homeless we decided to really rough it and just go with a tarp.” All money raised from the event will go towards the Camrose Open Door Association, Camrose Women’s Shelter and Habitat for Humanity. A box will be on site to collect donations for the Camrose NeighborAid Centre food bank. The rules of the Ten Teens and a Tarp fundraiser are that the teens are not allowed to leave the site or bring electronics or warming devices. “It could be tough not having a phone for 24 hours (noon Saturday to noon Sunday), but we are trying to do a good job of it,” said Emily. The teens are committed to raising $100 each. The Rotary Club of Camrose has already donated $280. “We will be collecting donations on site as well if people just want to stop by,” said Gilroy. “Food donations for the participants will be very welcome as well because we will only be having water. We are really trying to portray the aspect of being homeless for 24 hours.” The fundraiser is expected to do a good job of opening a few eyes to the condition of the homeless. “We don’t have many people in Camrose who are living on the street but that doesn’t mean there aren’t people who don’t have a home,” said Gilroy. “There are people like those at the Camrose Open Door, for instance, who are couch surfing essentially and don’t know where they are going to spent the next night.” The Interact Club of Camrose has 10 to 12 members who gather at the Rotary Youth Centre every other Sunday for meetings starting at 7 p.m. Two other events the club has planned include a seniors night where members go to a seniors’ lodge to play games for an hour and a half, and a soccer shootout at the Night Classic Soccer Tournament where contestants will have to get a ball through a small opening from midfield. “It is essentially going to be the same thing as the Bowl for the Green at Jaywalkers’ Jamboree, where you have to put a softball through a hole, except in this case it will be a soccer ball,” said Gilroy.

We also want to thank the Rosie Kozack family: Rosie, Bob, Audrey, Broagan and Roselle for the outstanding support given in arranging the Celebration.

Margaret Cassady December 21, 1923 – April 1, 2014 Margaret was born December 21, 1923 in Camrose, AB to Mamie and James Agrios. She passed away April 1, 2014 at the age of 90 years at Lilac Cottage, Louise Jensen Care Centre in Camrose. Margaret was the third child in a family of seven. Margaret was proud to call Camrose her lifetime home. She attended grade school at Camrose Normal School (now Rosehaven) and graduated from Camrose High School (now Charlie Killam School) in 1943. She was proud to receive a school board award for 13 years of perfect attendance. When asked how this was possible she attributed it to “Sunny Boy Cereal” every morning to which the local producer rewarded her endorsement with another certificate. As a young person, Margaret played piano, loved to sew and enjoyed school and her many friends. She had a camera in high school and many of her “snaps” were of friends on the grounds at high school. She often reflected in sadness on “all the boys who didn’t return home from the war”. She kept a scrapbook including clippings and keepsakes that grew to include a few volumes that present an interesting timeline of her life. After graduation, she took a secretarial course and a job at the Alberta Liquor Control Board, living with her dad’s relatives in Edmonton. On VE Day, May 8, 1945, Margaret married Cliff in Camrose. Together they raised five children, Susan, Jane, George, David and Ruth. She was a dedicated mother and homemaker with a weekly regulated schedule that ensured a neat home with three meals every day, two of them hot. Kids were always home for dinner at noon every school day. She sewed many of her own and the kids’ clothes, and loved to garden, both in her sunroom and out. She was an expert at fudge, brownies and cookies and had a talent for embroidery. She loved to make handmade gifts for all occasions. Once the house became quiet in later years, Margaret jumped straight into the job market, enjoying retail in shoe sales and variety stores as well as making new friends. She also volunteered her time to Centra Cam and was on the board for many years. She also loved crossword puzzles and was seldom seen without her camera. Margaret was excited to finally go for her driver’s license and own a car at age 58, a new-found freedom. Margaret was a kind, fun-loving and gentle woman who will live on in the memory of any who knew her. She also had an opinionated side which you knew about if you knew her well. Margaret Leverna will be sadly missed by her children Susan (Cecil) Throndson, Jane (Duane) Kinnee, George (Joyce) Cassady, David (Carolyn) Cassady and Ruth Cassady; 12 grandchildren; 14 great-grandchildren; brother Mickey Agrios; and numerous nieces and nephews and friends. Margaret was predeceased by her husband Clifford, one brother and four sisters. The family extends sincere thanks and appreciation for the attention, support and well wishes provided by the staff at Louise Jensen Care Centre throughout Mom’s illness, and to all others whose thoughts and prayers are both appreciated and gratefully acknowledged. A Funeral Service was held at 2:00 p.m. on Monday, April 7, 2014 from Burgar Memorial Chapel with Mary Ann Pastuck officiating. Inurnment has taken place in Valleyview Cemetery, Camrose. If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to the Alzheimer’s Association, Centra Cam, or to the charity of one’s choice.

Ruth Lydia Thomas-Courtney

Evelyn Lavina Astle February 22, 1926 – April 9, 2014 Evelyn, the second of the six children of William and Evelyn Moore, was born at home on February 22, 1926 and passed away peacefully on April 9, 2014 in Killam, AB at the age of 88. Evelyn grew up in the Fort Saskatchewan area, helping out on the family farm. Along with her sisters, she did a lot of the outside work. Walking the fields, they would poison gophers, pick rocks and pull wild mustard from the grain field. Is this why she had a weedless garden? She graduated from Fort Saskatchewan High School and went to the University of Alberta for a short time. Evelyn met Ken on a blind date and they were married on December 15, 1948, a marriage lasting 64 years. Throughout their married life, they created many lasting friendships from the various places they worked and lived. Evelyn enjoyed spending time in her vegetable and flower gardens, crocheting, doing crossword puzzles, baking, dancing and playing cards but, most of all, she loved visiting with family and friends. During their “snowbird” days, they even looked up friends and family who were also down south. She did work out of the house for a while, but the majority of her time was spent raising her family, being a hockey mom, skating mom, seamstress or whatever else was needed. She encouraged her children and grandchildren in whatever they choose to do, being a #1 fan cheering them on from the sports stands, audience or from behind the scenes. The group of angels whom she’ll be joining consists of her husband Ken; her parents William and Evelyn Moore; her brothers Donald (died in infancy) and Ray; sister June Mohr; grandchildren Ken B. Astle, Cheryl McKinnon and Drew Ashmore; sister-inlaw Shirley Stawinski; and brothers-in-law Clement Boisjoli, Al Batchelor and John Stawinski. Left to cherish her memory are her children Ron (Edie) Astle, Ft Saskatchewan, Linda (Wade) Ashmore, Fox Creek, Faye (John) Eckenswiller, Canyon Creek, Lynne (Scott) Davey, Camrose and Ken (Iris) Astle, Strome; nine grandchildren; 14 great-grandchildren; one great-great-granddaughter; sisters Mavis Boisjoli, Ft. Saskatchewan and Gwen Batchelor, St. Albert; sister-inlaw Delores Moore, Ft. Saskatchewan; brothers-in-law Irwin Mohr, Ft. Saskatchewan, Henry (Norma) Astle, Calgary and Rod (Sheila) Astle, Kamloops, BC; aunt: Dora Millenbacher, Drayton Valley; and numerous nieces, nephews and friends. As per Evelyn’s wishes, there will be no funeral and her cremains will be spread at a later date. Donations may be made to the Alzheimer Society, The Heart & Stroke Foundation, Aplastic Anemia Association or to a charity of one’s choice. Evelyn’s family would like to thank the staff and friends at Killam Long Term Care for the care she received. Thank you to all who were there for us at this time, for your kind words and thoughts, it was all greatly appreciated. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Vandale ready for ACAC brand of hockey By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks’ leading scorer from this past season will be playing in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference next fall. Luc Vandale agreed to attend NAIT for the 2014-15 Ooks hockey season. Luc was a dynamic player for the Kodiaks. He was tied for the lead in scoring with 17 goals, and was the leader with 30 assists and 47 points. “Luc is very fortunate to have a coach like Serge Lajoie to be able to teach and coach him at the next level,” said Kodiaks general manager and coach Boris Rybalka. “I believe that was the big decision maker in Luc choosing NAIT, as he had many options, but to have Serge coach him daily made that decision an easy one.” In four years with the Kodiaks Luc has played 193 games, scored 48 goals and collected 78 assists for 126 points. He was a valued leader in the dressing room and served as an assistant captain. “The Camrose Kodiaks organization would like to congratulate Luc and his family on his accomplishment. He had an outstand-

ing junior career and now he sets his sights on continuing that at the college level,” added Boris. Spencer Kryczka will be attending Princeton University in the NCAA next fall to play for the Tigers. “We are very proud of what Spencer has accomplished to date and he is very deserving of this. He is a leader on and off the

ice and he is going to excel when he goes to Princeton. Spencer has the potential to play this great game for a long time. The entire Kodiaks organization is excited for Spencer,” said Boris. In 48 games, Kryczka scored 12 goals and added 13 assists for 25 points. He split time with Okotoks and Camrose last season.

MacMaster listed

Another player on the Kodiaks, Tanner MacMaster, is ranked 120th in the final NHL draft player rankings for the upcoming NHL draft in June. Tanner will be attending Quinnipiac University this fall and playing for the Bobcats hockey program. Brandon Hickey of Spruce Grove is the top

The Kodiaks had a good look at more than 150 players at the annual spring camp April 4 to 6. Players came from Arizona, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and from all over Alberta and Camrose. “We were pleased with the talent that came here for the weekend. They played hard, competed and battled to show us as a staff that they would love to play here in Camrose,” said Boris. “Our scouts did a great job during the year to find us this talent and to bring it to Camrose. The coaching staff has only four months to formulate the main camp roster for training camp that begins on Aug. 22.

McCarrolls ready for another run at Spring Classic By Murray Green

The team roping partnership of Justin and Brett McCarroll has created a strong bond between the local brothers. They will be competing in the Camrose Spring Classic Rodeo at the Camrose Regional Exhibition on April 25 to 27. “We roped together since we were kids. We know what each other is going to do and we know what to expect from each other,” said Justin, who has partnered with Brett for six years professionally. “We also practice together every day. That’s about 20 years together,” added Brett. The team ropers go to about 30 to 35 rodeos a year. “We go pretty much every weekend from April to September,” said Justin. The love of team roping was inherited at an early age. “Our dad got us involved in team roping. He won the championship in 1989 when we were just very young and that sparked an interest for us,” said Brett. “We always had good horses because he was a horse trainer. We just wanted to ride horses from the time we were young. Team roping is a sport that you can do with your family. It’s a little safer than some other rodeo events. We also had some success when we were young and won money, so that kept us going,” Brett added. “It is a good family sport and the thrill of competition

never gets old, especially when you get to the national finals,” said Justin. The brothers were Canadian champions two straight years in 2006 and 2007. Brett has qualified for the finals 10 times and Justin has gone six years. “We practice all year round and we actually don’t take a ton of time off, even in the winter. We rope a lot in March and April to get ready for the season. We practice three or four times a week until October. If we make it to the National Finals Rodeo

then we go until November,” explained Justin. The McCarroll family owns Anchor J Ranch at the Highway 13 and 21 junction, where it has facilities that make roping all year a little easier. “We both have young families, so we practice when we can. Sometimes we meet at 10 p.m., turn on the lights and just give ‘er,” laughed Brett. “Having your own set up is awesome and is almost necessary.” “You can’t go to someone else’s building twice a week

and call it good. That’s not the commitment it takes to be a top professional,” said Justin. Team roping takes a lot of time and commitment for a sport that is a part time job. “I compare it to curling. You have to be ready to compete, but you still need another job,” said Brett. “Even in an average year you should do better than break even. There is a possibility of losing money and to put a lackadaisical effort in isn’t going to cut it.”

In their spare time, Justin is a teacher at the Cornerstone Christian School and Brett continues his father’s tradition of training horses for other cowboys. Training a top horse takes years of dedicated work. The Camrose Spring Classic Rodeo changed dates to fall on the same weekend as the Coleman and Dawson Creek rodeos. “It’s a lot nicer to go when it is warmer for the horses. It’s hard on the committee, especially when there wasn’t another rodeo for a month” said Brett. “Practicing for one rodeo and then taking a month off is hard on everybody. It just makes more sense to have it in April. Since there are other rodeos that weekend, they will probably have more entries,” added Justin. “It’s a great rodeo and it has gotten better every year. It is well supported by the local businesses, community and fans,” said the brothers, who also won the local rodeo in 2007. “We don’t look at the rodeo any different than any other, except it is less travel. As far as pressure, maybe we put a little more on ourselves. We approach each one the same. It is better for our families to be at home,” said Justin. “It’s fun for us and great to see everyone support it and us.” Justin is the header and Brett the heeler on the team roping combination.

“We tried both when we were younger and we started to specialize early,” Justin said. “I just started being the header because it sets the tone of the team for each run. I have a little more work to do because I pull the calf into position for the heeler and have to watch I don’t break the barrier at the start.” “With the heeler, at the

professional level, it isn’t acceptable to miss very often. Everybody misses, but generally speaking heelers need to be catching. At the professional level it is harder to be a header,” admitted Brett, who has done both. “At the pro level, I’m going to stick with heeling.” Every performance in Camrose will have different competitors. The Spring Clas-

sic will feature three performance times.

Council grants licence By Dan Jensen

City council has authorized the mayor and general manager of infrastructure services to issue a “Licence to Conduct a Concert” to Panhandle Productions for the 2014 Big Valley Jamboree scheduled to be held July 31 to Aug. 4. Panhandle Productions will be required to pay $283,773 including GST for municipal services and concert licence fees, as well as a final parking and campground plan that must be approved by the City of Camrose. The location and number of driveway approaches will be determined by the City of Camrose in consultation with Camrose Regional Exhibition and Panhandle Productions. Ticket sales will be capped at 25,000. Panhandle Productions producer Larry Werner told council in an April 7 presentation that he is still working on lease contracts which he hopes to make available to the City later this month. “It has been a bit of a process because we are dealing with multiple people on each contract licence, and for the most part some of them have been gone for the winter,” said Werner. “We do have one contract that has been signed and is currently in our office. Another one is out for signing.” The costs of policing and fire protection for the event are $237,612 plus GST and $21,600 plus GST respectively. The cost of policing for the 2013 event was $215,443, while the cost of fire was $19,201. “The policing costs for 2014 are fairly similar to 2013,” said Camrose Police Chief Darrell Kambeitz. “Our actual costs in 2013 were about $25,000 lower than anticipated. Unfortunately, we are under the same parameters this year as we try to budget that far in advance. Some of our policing partners don’t have exact dollars for us so we have to use estimates. We continually use those estimates at a higher rate, so there are no surprises for Panhandle or the CRE as the event comes closer.” Kambeitz expects the final numbers for policing at the 2014 Jamboree to come in lower than what he is estimating them to be at this time. The actual resources are identical to what they were in 2013 and there are no increases for salaries. I can tell you that the planning for this event has been well-coordinated and supported by both Panhandle and the CRE. We are looking forward to a very successful and safe year.” Corporate and protective services general manager Kim Isaak told council in a report that pre-event planning meetings have been held, as well as a table-top emergency planning scenario with participation from the partners, the City’s emergency services representatives, as well as key personnel from partner agencies.

Battle River Community Foundation board member Karin Naslund presents a cheque for $5,370 to Roxanna Skjonsberg, executive director of Centra Cam Vocational Training Association, and Aleena Lazar, employment client.

The Battle River Community Foundation has granted $5,370 from the Gordon French Fund to Centra Cam Vocational Training Association to assist in operating employment training programs for those with barriers to employment. The Battle River Community Foundation exists

to support projects, such as this, in East Central Alberta which benefit the local communities and have a positive impact on the future. Grants from the Battle River Community Foundation are primarily made possible through the generosity of individual donors and organizations that have created endowment funds. The

principal of these endowment funds is kept intact and the income is made available annually to support local projects and organizations. Since it was founded in 1995 the Battle River Community Foundation has granted over $2,250,000 to support important local initiatives.

County not funding extra full time office RCMP staff By Murray Green

Camrose County is finding out first hand that if you want something done, you have to do it yourself. The Alberta government is providing municipalities with an additional $2.3 million in 2014-15 – a total of $83.4 million – through the Municipal Policing Assistance grants and the Police Officer Grant. Additional funding indirectly provided for policing has increased by $14.5 million to $268.6 million through the Provincial Police Service Agreement with the RCMP, First Nations policing and ALERT (Alberta Law Enforcement Response Teams), on top of an estimated $136 million in provincial traffic fine revenue that will be returned to municipalities. Camrose, however, won’t be receiving one of the new 40 RCMP positions this year. “Things have not been finalized, but it appears that the Camrose detachment is not in line for an additional member at this time,” said RCMP superintendent Curtis Zablocki, at a County meeting March 25. “The commanding officer has the discretion of where those officers go. Since 2011 Camrose has had an additional constable. Often times the smaller detachments are more challenged because, when one person is away, you lose 25 per cent of your staff,” said Zablocki. Camrose currently has four officers with an average workload. “Some officers have as many criminal code cases as 200 and the average is about 99. Camrose officers have an average of 83 cases they are working on at a time. Caseloads are only one indicator, but it doesn’t appear that Camrose is a priority for an additional officer,” added Zablocki. “In addition to officers, some members might help the area in other areas such as with the emergency response team, major crime units and some units that support our day-to-day units. So, even though you may not receive an additional officer, you may benefit through these support units. We had extra administration, but we lost that position to elsewhere in the province.” The Bashaw detachment has five officers, but was understaffed until recently. “We have had some staff changes. A new cadet started and another one will be coming shortly when a member transfers out,” explained Zablocki, who further pointed out that Bashaw will in fact have one extra person because a member from Blackfalds will be coming in to help train the new cadet. “It’s not uncommon to have gaps between members because, it takes time for

members to sell their house, or transfer in.” Councillor Greg Gillespie asked how many RCMP members are out on the streets. “We have about 3,000 members,” replied Zablocki. “So an additional 40 members across the province isn’t a lot,” said councillor Greg. “Alberta is growing so fast; does that give you enough to keep up?” he asked. “We are grateful for the extra staff. That is one of the challenges, the growth. The other challenge is the number of staff that are retiring,” Zablocki said. “We hope to gain some ground again next year.” County assistant administrator Paul King said Camrose County currently supplies a half-time administration person to the RCMP to help keep the officers on patrol and to reduce the amount of time spent in the office. “The province has adopted a ratio of one to four, an administrative person to every four officers. That is standard around the province,” stated Zablocki. “There have been some discussions to change that because of changing times, but it has been the standard for quite a lot of years. Anytime we can keep our boots on the street is good. We try to minimize the administration work for the RCMP member, so they can be out in the communities doing police work instead of paper work.” The extra help is welcomed. “Having additional administrative personnel gives the officers more out on the street. We are appreciative of the extra help. If it moves to full-time it will help even more. It is making a difference,” he added. “The number of calls has declined by 20 per cent.” Councillor Trevor Miller wanted to ensure his ratepayers that they are getting better service and that they are not replacing funding from the RCMP. “What you are adding is over and above what is provided. You’re building on extra and better service. No one will be taking resources away from us because the County is added on,” said Zablocki. Councillor Doug Lyseng asked about longer response times during a crisis when the detachment is understaffed. “In a lot of cases we can’t let a member go in without a backup. It may take extra response time to make sure they have the proper backup, depending on the situation,” said Zablocki. County Reeve Don Gregorwich indicated that the amount of traffic in this area will increase because of the new Cargill plant and asked the RCMP to plan ahead.

Spring is a time to bid adieu to the bulky, layered looks that dominate winter. Each season the runways help dictate which fashions will dominate stores across the country, and the following are some beauty and fashion trends.

Splashes of orange Orange is a vibrant hue poised to take the season by storm. Evoking feelings of warmth and sunshine, orange is an unexpected and bold color choice. Daring women can don head-to-toe orange and really make a splash. However, there are some more subtle ways to don orange this season, including adding a pop of this vibrant color to shoes or belts. If the

runways were any indication, orange makeup also figures to be popular this summer. An orange lip and a peachy eye flatter many skin types. Such coral colors are reminiscent of tropical, coral backdrops, making them perfect for summers by the shore.

Black and white domination Pairing crisp black and white will forever be a fashion staple. This combination continues to be a strong contender for spring. Avoid looking like the wait staff at a local restaurant by matching black with white in unique ways. Another way to make black and white more unique is to play with texture.

Ethereal faces Few people want to feel burdened by their makeup regimen on warm days. Spring is a season for bare faces, so women looking to enhance their features without drowning them out will appreciate some of the ethereal trends that have emerged this season. White, shimmery eye shadow provides just a hint of glamour. White eyeliner and shadow can open up deep-set eyes or help small eyes appear larger. To achieve glowing skin, use tinted moisturizers and bronzers rather than spending hours outdoors soaking up potentially harmful sun. Use bronzer with a very light hand and apply to the areas the sun would normally touch, such as the cheekbones, the bridge of the nose and forehead. Pair this with a liquid shimmer or illuminator and your skin will look dewy and fresh. Berry-stained lips go well with bare or shimmery eyes, and they’re the perfect way to perk up minimal makeup. Women can layer the deep-pink color depending on how daring they want to be.

Crop Tops Crop tops remain a fashion trend this season. Because they’re not for everyone, it’s unlikely this style will become oversaturated. This season the crop top is about showing just a hint of the midriff, which can make the look more attainable. Of course, short tops can be reserved for athletic wear or swimsuits for those people who are not yet daring enough to incorporate them into their everyday wardrobes.

Evraz assists Chester Ronning with literacy By Murray Green

The employees of the Evraz North America Camrose steel plant want to help children receive a good start in school. They decided to furnish and supply books for the Chester Ronning School library as their way of giving back to the community. The head office in Chicago wanted all of its branches and sites to follow a theme when making donations. “They wanted to help with children’s literacy. Each employee receives a book from the CEO at Christmas time that they can read to children,” said Alicia Brady, human resources officer at Evraz Camrose. “They (the company) like to promote children’s literacy and focus on children between the ages of five to eight and the program is called Reading Sparks,” explained Alicia. “They wanted to create book nooks in various places.” The book nooks are a safe and friendly place for children to go to read a book. Evraz started the project in Canada with book nooks in Calgary, Red Deer, Regina and now Camrose. “It’s a great program. We are allowed to give 75 per cent of our annual donation budget to this (Reading Sparks), which is $24,000 a year. I get to focus that annually, just in our community of Camrose,” added Alicia. “That is pretty exciting.” The total donation budget is $32,000, but the local Evraz employees also like to support the Camrose Police Service DARE program. Evraz furnished the nook at the Chester Ronning School with mostly bright orange (matching Evraz’s colour theme) furniture consisting of chairs, tables, couches, cushions, bookshelves and signage. It also funded the cost for 597 new books aimed at teaching and getting children excited about learning to read. “The head office had a catalogue of furniture to pick

and create a wish list from and I emailed it to all of the principals of elementary schools in Camrose. I provided information about the program and asked the principals to tell us about their school,” said Alicia. Chester Ronning School wrote a big, long story on how the school is built around the library. “The library is the centre and hub for learning and they (the school) seemed really excited about our program,” said Alicia. “When Alicia sent the email out, I remember how excited we were. I think we (along with librarian Kathie Green) responded within a couple of hours,” said principal Dan Cole. “We are really focused on literacy and reading, and Kathie has done such a good job in changing the library with seating and creating a learning atmosphere. We spend about $2,000 every year on books to encourage reading at an early age. There are so many exciting books out there and we want to foster reading.

So, when we saw this book nook idea, it just totally fit into literacy and what we are trying to accomplish. We knew it would generate a lot of interest, so we put in a good application. When Alicia contacted us that we were selected, it was very exciting. We worked with head office and Kathie put in a lot of work to purchase $5,000 worth of books. We tried to range every reading level. We had studentled conferencing here, so the parents saw the displays. It generated a lot of interest and excitement. That’s what we want for our school – to celebrate reading. We will use this for years to come and very much appreciate the support of Evraz.” Cole explained that the school focuses on balanced literacy and all of the teachers and support staff spend a third of the day on reading. “We have full school reading. After the announcements in the morning the whole school stops whatever they are doing and reads. It’s one example on how we focus

on literacy and every week all classes come to the library for reading time. Kathie selects new books and as soon as she reads them they can’t wait for them to hit the shelves. It generates instant interest, so those books are signed out. It is a plus and fosters reading.” Learning to read is the most important task for children to master in their life-long journey. “For Evraz to commit 75 per cent of its annual donation budget to literacy and children is very important,” said Alicia. “We have lots of employees that have children going to this school and other schools around Camrose that we want to help. Literacy may be a bigger issue in some of our United States based cites, but in Canada as well. The five to eight age is critical in getting started to read.” Chester Ronning School believes in giving children the advantage of learning to read. “Right from kindergarten on we focus on reading and we actually have an

early literacy reading initiative and we have a certain number of periods per week where we work with children who are on the lower end of reading, those who struggle with reading,” said Cole. “We have two on one with a teacher to build up those skills. Our division wants all Grade 3 students reading at that same level by the end of Grade 3. That is our target, to have all students at that level. If they have that early success, then it will build from there.” The book nook will be used mostly as a place for children to read, but teachers could work with students in the area as well. “It is a comfortable and invited place to enjoy books and we hope the students will use the area to read more,” concluded the principal. “We thank Evraz for supporting our school.” The donation to Chester Ronning School was for 2013 school year and Evraz is currently accepting applications from local schools for the 2014 funding period.

Jeep Wrangler

Mike Cuthbert By Dan Jensen

The 2014 Jeep Wrangler at Camrose Chrysler is a true icon of adventure. Wrangler was born with the athletic ability to navigate narrow gaps, dodge emergency situations and avoid cosmetic damage to underbody sills thanks to precision engineering and optimized wheelbase. Solid axles with locating arms, coil springs, track/stabilizer bars, front steering dampers and tunable monotube shock absorbers are firm at low speeds and more relaxed at higher speeds, while stamped steel skid plates defend the fuel tank and transfer case. Tru-Lok front and rear electronic-locking differentials balance speed between the left and right wheels, maintaining forward momentum for the ultimate in traction. Rock-Trac with its 4:1 low-gear ratio allows Wrangler to crawl at a low speed for greater control and increases the amount of torque available at the wheels. Command-Trac employs the NV241 GII transfer case, delivering smooth and quiet part-time shift-on-the-fly operation. Performance Jeep Wrangler’s awardwinning Pentastar engine

with variable valve timing roars to life, delivering a best-in-class 285 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque. “The Pentastar answered the quest for the right amount of muscle to match Wrangler’s legendary brawn,” said Camrose Chrysler sales manager Noel Skoglund. “It moves forward with a unique oil pan, an acoustic engine cover to help mask noise, optimized upper intake airflow for torque, and added equal-length downpipes to assist low- and mid-range torque response.” Also unique to the Pentastar are the front-end accessory drive and high-mounted rear-facing alternator for water fjording. Its pulsewidth modulated 600-watt fan is 100 per cent variable speed, not just high and low, plus it has a full-face condenser for better air conditioning performance and a stand-alone transmission oil cooler. The Pentastar comes standard with an exceptionally capable six-speed manual, or you can opt for the smooth-shifting five-speed automatic. This strategically optimized automatic operates in an efficient rpm range, which helps maximize fuel economy. Electronic stability control is designed to

assist drivers in maintaining control of their vehicle. It utilizes hydraulic brake assist, traction control and Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) and Trailer Sway Control (TSC) to constantly monitor driver input against the vehicle’s actual course. If needed, ESC automatically brakes and/ or reduces engine torque while ERM estimates the potential for wheel lift, reducing engine power and applying the brakes if needed. TSC detects sway unique to trailering and engages the brakes to slow the vehicle, increasing brake force to one side of the vehicle to help counteract the sway from the trailer. ESC has three modes: full-on, partial-on (shuts off traction control) and full-off (ideal for off-road driving). Hill Descent Control is packaged with the available-five speed automatic transmission and diligently works to help Wrangler navigate steep declines at a steady and consistent speed. Hill Start Assist works to prevent Wrangler from rolling when starting on an up- or downhill gradient. It holds the vehicle stationery for

two seconds after the driver’s foot is removed from the brake pedal, allowing time to apply the throttle. A modern original The pride of owning a Wrangler comes from knowing you are driving Canada’s only true 4x4 convertible. The standard Sunrider Soft Top utilizes special three-ply material that is quiet, watertight and easy to fold away. The premium Sunrider Soft Top adds an extra level of durability, cleanability and sound dampening for a quieter ride, while the Freedom Top Hardtop is strong and secure, with a three piece modular design that lets you bring in the sun as you see fit. It’s available in either Black Spackle or colour keyed to match your exterior paint. With its finely wrought classic design details, you arrive in comfort and style. Satin Silver and chrome accents, available automatic temperature control, and available heated cloth or leatherfaced seats are embedded into a premium soft-touch interior. The steering wheel places cruise, audio and available Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-

tre controls right at your fingertips. The seven-speaker Alpine premium sound system creates a realistic sound stage with its 368-watt amplifier, an eight-inch subwoofer, two tweeters and four 6.5-inch speakers – two of which are located in the overhead sound bar. A reversible cargo mat protects the carpet while a storage bin beneath Wrangler’s rear f loor helps keep valuables secure and out of sight. The lift-out tray provides convenient storage for door and hardtop bolts. High praise The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, with its Tru-Lok electronically locking differentials, mud-terrain tires, Rock-Trac transfer case, 4:1 low gear ratio and rock rails, performance-tuned suspension with gas-charged shocks and electronic sway bar disconnect, was selected Best 4x4 of the Decade by FourWheeler magazine. You can see the new Jeep Wrangler at Camrose Chrysler on Highway 13 east, Camrose. Phone 780-672-2476 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

Shopping for best deal takes you to a franchise dealership

With money being tight, it is always a good idea to shop around for the best deal. Telling the difference, however, between a deal that is a good one and a deal that is not can sometimes be a little bit tricky and require some thorough investigation. You need to take into consideration the quality of product, the warranty for that product and the people with whom you are dealing. After all, cheapest does not always translate into less expensive. As Leon M. Cautillo put it, “The bitterness of poor quality remains long after low pricing is forgotten!” In the case of buying a new vehicle, you want to be sure that the vehicle is reliable and that the person with whom you are speaking is knowledgeable. You also want the assurance that if something goes wrong with it sometime down the road, you can get it back to prime condition in as little time as possible. The following local franchise dealerships are examples of some, among others, who have good reputations for providing quality and service. Lamb Ford Sales in Camrose takes pride in the fact that all staff are highly trained in their respective fields and are able to promptly answer the questions of all their customers. “They know what they are talking about and that means a lot,” said Lamb Ford general manager Pat Quinlan. “If they aren’t able to thoroughly answer a question to your satisfaction there is someone who can.” By Dan Jensen

Ty Hoglund keeps his eye on the ball during a Camrose Minor Ball baseball indoor session at the fieldhouse. Local ball players are eagerly waiting the start of another season in the area. Inset: Wade Stordahl works on his pitching form during an indoor pitching session at the peewee team tryouts on April 5.

Lamb Ford also offers customers factory incentives and cash discounts on all the newest models, and low interest rates on those that are used. “With the market the way it is we understand the need to be competitive,” said Quinlan. “If we weren’t competitive we wouldn’t exist.” Quinlan said no one knows a Ford vehicle better than Ford itself. “The computer systems in vehicles today are very complex. We have the equipment here that lets us get to the root of the problems in the shortest time possible and do the updates that are needed. In some cases we can have an engineer from Ford come out to help with a diagnosis.” Quinlan said it is a myth that buying a vehicle or parts from a non-franchised dealership is less expensive. “If you buy a Ford vehicle and buy Ford parts from us when it comes time to service or repair that vehicle, the vehicle will run better and last longer than if you purchased after-market products.” Lamb Ford Sales is a multiple-time winner of the President’s Diamond Club Award, presented annually to those dealerships that demonstrate outstanding achievement in sales and customer service.

Fuel efficiency is an important issue for car buyers, and understandably so. Conserving fuel is good for drivers’ budgets and the planet, so the concept of fuel efficiency would seem to benefit everyone. But just because fuel efficiency is a good concept does not mean there are not misconceptions about it among drivers and automotive professionals alike. The following are some of the more widely held misconceptions about fuel efficiency.

Some common myths on fuel economy Continued from page 34 Any product that is allowed to fall into disrepair will prove less efficient than products that are well maintained, and cars are no exception. A poorly maintained car will not operate at peak fuel efficiency because it’s likely being forced to work harder to get down the street than it would if it was well kept. But a wellmaintained vehicle should not grow less fuel efficient over time. Shifting into neutral This is another misconception that was once true but no longer applies thanks to advances in technology. When engines still had carburetors, shifting into neutral might have helped conserve fuel by stopping the flow of gas into the engine while the car was idling. However, fuel injection systems are now computerized and capable of sensing when an engine is revving above idle. This shuts off the fuel injectors, preventing gas from being injected into the engine and preventing gas from being wasted while the vehicle is stopped as a result. Taking steps to conserve fuel is a good way for drivers to save money and benefit the environment. However, some of the conventional means to conserving fuel are no longer viable.

School bands to perform at the Bailey Theatre April 23 By Murray Green

The Sir John Franklin School band program has a Camrose connection. The Calgary school band that will be performing at the Bailey Theatre on Wednesday, April 23 at 7:30 p.m. will be led by director Jane McLauchlin. The band will be joined by the local Charlie Killam Jazz Band under director Bob Bailey as part of the evening performance. Sir John Franklin School’s music director Jane McLauchlin (nee Reed) was born and raised in Camrose. She lived in a home filled with music. Jane watched her sister, Luanne, go through the band programs in Camrose as a ‘tag along’ to evening band rehearsals at the Camrose Composite High School. Jane also hung out with her sister and friends, including Val and Bob Bailey. Mr. Taylor was the CCHS music teacher at the time and made time to chat with Jane and encouraged her to play flute, going so far as to lend her his own when she began to play. From the moment she walked into her first band class her dream was to become a band teacher. She fulfilled this dream by first attending

Augustana (formerly CLC) and then moving to Calgary to complete her schooling at the U of C. She remained in Calgary, working for the Calgary board of education. Currently, she is in her fifth year at Sir John Franklin School. Val and Bob were close friends of Luanne and, as a result, Jane and Bob have remained in contact over the years through various music events. Now they will be sharing the stage at the local theatre with their school bands. Sir John Franklin School brings together students from over 50 different Calgary communities, which results in a very diverse community of learners who excel through their creativity. The band program was resurrected six years ago after being abandoned for over a decade. The program has more than doubled in enrollment in the last four years and produces bands that consistently receive high scores in provincial festivals. Students enjoy learning traditional concert band music, jazz, African drumming and take part in a wind ensemble. Each year the band participates in a spring tour. This year the band is excited to be visiting Camrose.

Helpful Tips for Writing Classified Ads Which Get Results! Be Thorough

Sure you want your ad to stand out from the rest, but don’t skimp on the sort of information that sells. The item’s condition, size, age, brand name, and color are some of the basics readers want to know. Without them, your ad may be overlooked.

Steer Clear of Abbreviations

Okay, so you want to include all the important basics. Don’t use strange abbreviations because our ads are designed to spell all the important details. Besides, you are not paying by the line, but by the word, so there is really no need to abbreviate.

Be Honest

Exaggerating your item’s finer points may bring in a lot of responses, but a buyer who’s misled won’t appreciate it and will take his business somewhere else.

State Your Price

The cost of an item is one of the most important concerns of want ad readers. Ads showing prices are ones which get results. Giving a price also serves to “weed out” those buyers not in your price range.

Be Accessible

Including a telephone number or address puts you in touch with potential buyers. Be sure to state the hours you can be reached: a caller who can’t get through the first time often won’t call again.

Don’t hesitate to call us with any questions or problems you may have regarding advertising. Our professionally trained sales staff know the ropes, and would be happy to pass their know-how on to you. That’s why we’re here, to help you get the results you deserve.

Safeway supports Easter Seals By Dan Jensen

The Camrose Safeway store is partnering with Easter Seals Canada on a campaign to help see the ability in disability. Safeway will be giving customers five AirMiles reward miles from now to Aug. 25 for each $2 donation they make to Easter Seals. One hundred per cent of all funds raised go directly to support programs and help local families. The amount raised in in the 2013 Easter Sales campaign to support important programs across Canada was $1.2 million. Easter Seals is dedicated to fully enhancing the quality of life, self-esteem and selfdetermination of Canadians with disabilities. More than 146,000 Canadians and their families annually access programs and services provided by Easter Seals organizations across Canada, the best known of which are Easter Seals camp programs. Other services include active living opportunities and the provision of specialized equipment, such as mobility aids, assistive technology, adaptive computers, augmentative communication devices and adaptations to homes and vehicles for wheelchair accessibility. Easter Seals works to ensure that everyone with a disability has access to the equipment, services and recreational opportunities they need to enjoy a high quality of life. Ultimately, it is about seeing ability in disability and the opportunity to live lives to their full potential. “Easter Seals provides support to families living with disabilities and with the support of Safeway we are able to provide life changing recreational experiences at Easter Seals Camp Horizon and equipment programs to the families in our communities across Alberta,” explained Susan Boivin, CEO, Easter Seals Alberta. Chuck Mulvenna, president of Safeway operations, Sobey’s Inc. said helping neighbours living with a diverse range of abilities has long been a Safeway priority.

Main stage line-up finalized for BVJ By Murray Green

The Big Valley Jamboree will close out with a performance from five time American Country Music female country vocalist of the year Miranda Lambert. But, you won’t have to wait until the last act of the July 31 to Aug. 3 weekend to hear great country music. The line-up has been filled with some of the hottest acts in the music business. Panhandle Productions has added a few acts to complete the main stage entertainers. Multi-instrumentalist Alee will be bringing her signature upbeat sound back to BVJ for an encore performance. Alee’s last Big Valley performance won over fans in the BVJ songwriter’s workshop, and she thrilled the audience with her songs at the Bashaw Small Town Saturday Night concert. She will open on Friday afternoon. Dale Watson has also been added on Friday. He is known for his refined style by being on stage since the age of seven. Releasing albums for over 20 years and securing his spot in the Austin Music Hall of Fame, Dale Watson’s career has hit nearly every milestone, and he’ll add another to the list when he plays in Camrose for the first time. He will be followed by Texan Clay Walker. With 11 albums under his belt – including four platinum releases – Walker has proven to be a fixture on the country scene. Newcomer Kip Moore has the task on going on stage prior to Miranda Lambert. He is no stranger to the small town party. His career may be relatively new, but this old soul will entertain the crowd. The Oak Ridge Boys will be returning for their fourth time. The legacy of country and gospel hits is as long as their musical journey. To help get the weekend started, Lindsay Ell will be performing at the Thursday evening Kick-off Party followed by Lonestar, Blackjack Billy and the Chemical Cowboys. On Friday, Aug. 1, the line-up will feature Alee, The Stellas, Dale Watson, Clay Walker, Dean Brody and Hunter Hayes. Saturday’s main stage will have the Boom Chucka Boys, Jaida Dreyer, Chad Brownlee, Oak Ridge Boys, Darius Rucker and the Zac Brown Band. On Sunday, Aug. 3, the line-up will be Drew Gregory, Kira Isabella, Williams and Ree, Marty Stuart, Kip Moore and Miranda Lambert. Single day and Kick-off Party tickets for the 2014 Big Valley Jamboree are still available at www.BigValleyJamboree.com or phone 888404-1234.

Reconnecting with French history, culture Submitted by

Cercle local de Battle-River A brief history of rights, hopes and progress (edited with permission from original text by Glen Taylor). Lacombe, Beaumont, Saint Albert, Miette, Chauvin, Morinville, Gregoire, Legal, even Edmonton. While the name Edmonton doesn’t sound particularly French, it is included in the list by virtue of numbers: from the beginning of its history and for many years (until 1885, according to some historians), most of the inhabitants in the Edmonton area spoke French. For a very long time francophones have left their mark throughout Alberta. Last week we discussed some of the first francophones families in Camrose County. Despite their important contribution to the development of the region and the province, however, Alberta francophones (like their counterparts in almost every province outside Quebec) have had to overcome enormous obstacles to maintain their language and culture. One of the biggest challenges was the lack of access to French-language education. The first French-language school in Alberta, when the vast western region was still called the Northwest Territories, was founded at Lake Saint Anne in 1842. As the Territories were officially bilingual at the time, citizens had the right to have their children schooled entirely in French. That right remained in effect for only 50 years. In 1892, a territorial decree made English the official language of instruction, limiting teaching in French to a single course at the primary level. Just imagine how hard it would be to pass on English language and culture to your children if virtually all their education took place in French! This situation, which led directly to assimilation, last three to four generations. It wasn’t until 1976 that francophones in Alberta once again were able to have their children educated entirely in French. Some progress was made nonetheless, though at a snail’s pace, as these two events detail. In 1925, a new regulation allowed for teaching in French of all subjects (except English language arts) in Grade 1 and 2. However, starting in Grade 3, instruction in French was restricted to one hour per day. In 1964, the School Act of Alberta was modified to allow teaching in French from Grades 1 to 9, though on a diminishing basis: Grades 1 and 2 could be taught entirely in French (except for English courses);

in Grade 3, children had to receive at least two hours of instruction in English per day; and, starting in Grade 4, instruction in French could not exceed one hour per day. A lot of things can happen in 84 years. It’s not surprising, then that a great many francophone families in Alberta ended up losing all traces of their French roots. Only families that made a concerted effort to save their language and culture, and their very identity, managed to pass on this heritage to their offspring. Of course, each generation had to make the decision to keep French alive, just as each of us must decide what we want for our children. The big difference is that in those days, francophones didn’t have the resources that are available to them today. The educational landscape changed radically in 1982. The Canadian parliament adopted the Charter of Rights and Freedom wherein section 23 gave members of the two official language minorities in Canada (English and French) the right to have their children educated in their mother tongue. That was, however, just the beginning of a process that is still evolving today. Francophones are now able to assume governance of their schools as a result of the Mahé case, which was a legal battle waged by three Albertans over 10 long years. To this day, the court’s ruling remains one of the most important gains ever made by francophones living in a minority setting across Canada. Yet despite the court’s decision, three more years went by before the Alberta government recognized francophones’ right to govern their schools. Finally, in 1994, the Minister of Education established seven francophone school regions. Francophones had high hopes with respect to French-language education, and the new school boards tackled many challenges in order to turn those hopes into reality. They introduced programs in the areas of distance learning, cultural development, early literacy, professional mentoring, gifted learning, help with homework, and family literacy. If you would like more information about francophone education in your region, to find out whether francophone schooling is for you or to attend events in French please contact: Marc Dumont, Superintendent Conseil scolaire Centre-Est 780-645-3888 centreest@centreest.ca, or Cercle local de Battle-River camrose@acfa.ab.ca
